MS Train simulator

Postby loomex » Mon Apr 28, 2003 6:21 pm

I was just wondering if any of you have this program. I have it but I deleted it because it takes over a gig for a full install and the add-ons you can get from train-sim.com are great but HUGE in size. When I get a bigger HD, I will reinstall it.
Just wonder what you all thought of it

I have it, but don't use it much these days. I love steam trains and added loads of British steam loco's but I bo get a bit bored with it after a while. It looks nice but lacks the freedom of flight sims.
Until I can get round to building a model railway though  this will have to do!

I agree with all above. It was interesting at first, but after riding all the rails, the only thing to look foward to were the deer running off the tracks!!! LOL

I had it installed a while ago, (for about three minutes I think)....
I got fed-up with going up and down the same bit of track and wishing I could turn off and visit the countryside.... :'(...!
...It's probably more exciting than "Fly Fishing simulator" tho'.... ???....!

I'm waiting for "Cindy simulator" to come out now, (the adult version)... :P...!

LOL...LOL...LOL...!

I never was interested in the train simulator. Sounds tooooo boring.

I'm much more happy flyin' around the country side in my little prop ;D

in that case, I guess the reason why I don't like it is because a major railroad company murdered a cousin of mine because her family wouldn't sell their property to the railroad. Of course, that was a long time ago, but it still did happen ;D

If you don't believe that they murdered my cousin, go look in your history book ;)

I have it and got bored of it after a while. It's still on my system but I never play it. I found it was too short. For the extensive rail network that North America has, only two routes was not enough. They should have done a coast to coast route of either the US or Canada.

After the railroads killed my cousin, the railroad companies paid dearly for what they did because her sons became outlaws and constantly attacked and harassed the railroad companies ;D

Not before time...!

You all may think i'm kidding, but a railroad company really did murder a cousin of mine for refusing to sell property to them. I forget her name, but I remember her son's name. His name was Jesse James ;D
